Chapter 22 Level 9, Open
On the ninth floor of the Sword Tower, Qin Bing is not sure. Even the mysterious old man is not optimistic about him. He doesn't think that the elder who has been guarding the Sword Tower for countless years is not as good as him.
"Are you leaving like this?" Looking at the closed ninth stone gate, Qin Bing frowned and was quite unwilling.
He has been looking for nearly a day in this sword building, and he has not found the skills he needs. Although he has won the Jiuyou Gun Code, he is unwilling to leave like this.
"Anyway, I will have a try when I come. Even if I fail, I will admit it!" After a moment of meditation, Qin Bing finally made up his mind. Although he was not sure, it was rare to come to Jianlou once. If he didn't even try, he would be too bold.
When he thought of it, Qin Bing did not hesitate and walked quickly to the ninth floor.
"Wh~What a familiar feeling!" As soon as he stepped on the stone steps, a strong pressure followed, which made Qin Bing slightly stunned, because under this pressure, he clearly felt a rather familiar force.
"Forbid the empty stone!" For a moment, Qin Bing recalled the experience of the previous forbidden stone. The power on the stone steps was obviously the same as the forbidden stone and had the same power.
"But this stone step seems to be more mysterious than the forbidden stone, and there is even a sword!" He had the experience of banning the empty stone, and Qin Bing did not look too embarrassed on this stone step. After walking a few steps, he also felt that there was a faint sword spirit on the stone step. Although it was not very strong, it was also increasing with the stone steps.
Eighteen steps, it took Qin Bing half a column of incense to walk to the stone gate on the ninth floor.
Although the pressure and sword meaning on this stone steps are good, it only reaches the early stage of Jindan, far from the pressure on the forbidden stone. As for the sword intention, although it reaches the unity of human and swords, it is much worse than Qin Bing's realm of everything as a gun, and it also can't stop him.
"This test seems too simple, doesn't it?" Recalling the words of the mysterious old man at the bottom, Qin Bing frowned. If there is such a test, the practitioners who can enter the eighth level will definitely have the strength to enter the ninth level!
"It will never be that simple." Even entering the seventh and eighth floors have to go through the test of the forbidden stone. How can the ninth test be simpler than the forbidden stone? Thinking of this, Qin Bing's face became solemn, because he thought of a possibility. Although he was already standing in front of the ninth floor at this moment, there was still a stone door in front of him, which was probably the final test!
"Let me see how powerful this ninth layer is!" Qin Bing's body ran at full speed and slowly raised his right palm and pressed on the stone door in the golden halo.
Bang!
Qin Bing's body trembled violently when his palm touched the stone door, and a muffled sound came from his body. Then Qin Bing's body retreated like a hammer. At the same time, his eyes were full of horror, and blood overflowed from the corners of his mouth. Under the contact at that moment just now, he was actually injured!
"What a terrible sword, I'm afraid it has reached the point where everything is a sword!" Looking at the stone gate, Qin Bing muttered to herself.
Just as the moment his palm touched the stone gate, a terrible sword gushed out on the stone gate, directly hurting him, but after wounding him, the sword did not overflow at all, as if it had never appeared.
"Who on earth has such a powerful artistic conception that he can leave such a powerful sword on the stone gate!" Qin Bing looked at the stone door, wiped the blood stains on the corners of his mouth, and sighed with a wry smile.
You should know that this sword spirit has obviously reached the point where everything is a sword. If you want to stay in the stone gate, the human mood left behind is probably stronger than that of everything as a sword.
"This person who leaves the sword is really strong, and he is not an ordinary practitioners!" At this moment, an old voice suddenly occurred in Qin Bing's mind.
"Senior, is that you?" Hearing this sudden sound, Qin Bing's face changed slightly, because this sound was the blue rock in the ancient tower in his body.
"I didn't want to disturb you, but I didn't expect to disturb you." In his mind, Qingyan said with a wry smile.
"Senior, can't you get out of the ancient tower, why?" Hearing this, Qin Bing shook his head and immediately seemed to remember something. He couldn't help asking.
"I'm not sure. Maybe it's because Guta recognized the Lord, and I can feel some changes in the outside world." Qingyan shook his head and said slowly.
Qin Bing nodded slightly when she heard the words. Although the ancient pagoda has recognized him as the master, the ancient pagoda has many unknowns. Even he and Qingyan are not clear.
"Senior, you just said that it is not an ordinary practitioners, so he is..." Qin Bing suddenly said after a moment of silence.
"This stone gate should be set up by Jian Xiu!" The sound of Qingyan sounded again.
"Sword cultivation?" Qin Bing frowned. It was the first time he heard the name of Jianxiu. In the past, he only knew what magic cultivation, demon cultivation and Taoism were.
"You don't even know Jian Xiu?" Qingyan was more surprised than him.
"Senior, is this sword practice very famous? But I haven't heard of such practitioners in the world of sword cultivation? Qin Bing was puzzled when he heard the words. Listening to Qingyan's words, it seemed that Jianxiu had a great reputation in the world of cultivation, and he was not even weaker than the three cultivation of demons, but strangely, Qin Bing had never heard of this name.
"Haven't you heard of it?" Qingyan frowned, "It shouldn't be. This sword cultivation is the most powerful vein of Taoism. In fact, its strength is almost comparable to the three cultivation of demons. Why haven't you heard of it?"
"This junior really hasn't heard of it." Qin Bing shook her head with a bitter smile and immediately said, "Senior, that sword cultivation is only a vein of Taoism. It's incredible that it's so strong."
You should know that ordinary branches are generally weaker than the main vein and can compete with the main vein, which shows the strength of this branch.
"Forget it if you don't know." Qingyan shook his head. Although he didn't know why Qin Bing had never heard of Jianxiu, he still explained, "Jianxiu is different from those who practice swords. They are geniuses in kendo, and everyone has great achievements in swordsmanship. Especially sword meaning, their understanding of sword meaning is almost evil. Sword cultivation seeks the most powerful combat effectiveness. A sword cultivation of the same level can even fight against two to three other practitioners of the same level, and is known as the strongest monk in the cultivation world.
"There are such practitioners who can become a single lineage!" Qin Bing was shocked that the vast majority of monks who used swords in the cultivation world, but few monks could face two or even three practitioners of the same level at the same time. What's more, it is even more difficult to have an extraordinary understanding of the sword. The whole sword cultivation is simply a collection of evil spirits. No wonder it can compete with Taoism!
"Jian Xiu takes himself as a sword, and the sword is him. He is the sword. He pursues the limit of attack, but he goes to the extreme." Just when Qin Bing was still in shock, there was a sigh in his mind.
"Are you going to the extreme?" Qin Bing was stunned when he heard the words. He also yearned for this kind of practitioners who pursue strong combat effectiveness, but in Qingyan's words, he heard a different taste.
"Although the combat effectiveness of sword cultivation is strong, it is also destined that their future achievements will not be too high. You should know that everything is balanced. Yin and Yang, life and death, heaven and earth, the five elements, all things have never been the strongest. In the early stage, they may be far stronger than practitioners of the same level, but later they are difficult to achieve." Qingyan shook his head.
Hearing Qingyan's words, Qin Bing couldn't help falling into meditation. After a long time, he sighed, but he agreed with Qingyan's words in his heart. This sword cultivation did go to extremes and excessively pursued combat effectiveness, but later deviated from the balance of all things.
"Senior, you know so much about this sword cultivation, is there any way to open this stone door?" Qin Bing's eyes flashed, took a deep breath, and asked Qingyan for advice.
"There is no way, but it is difficult for you to use. The simplest way is that your artistic conception can reach the point where everything is a gun, so that you can directly enter it." Qingyan said with a smile.
"Senior, is there any other way?" Qin Bing smiled bitterly when she heard the words. This method is indeed the simplest and most effective, but Qin Bing can't be used at all at this moment. It will take him at least half a year to achieve the artistic conception of everything as a gun.
"Yes!" Qingyan smiled.
"The second method is also the most likely and most helpful way for you is to run the road and feel the sword spirit in the stone gate. As long as you can persist and resist the sword spirit, you can open the stone gate, and it is also of great help to your artistic conception." Qingyan continued.
"Isn't this method dangerous?" Qin Bing frowned and said that he had tried to open it directly before, but it hurt himself. Now he feels it again, and he is not very worried.
"Of course there is danger, but there is no life danger. At most, you were injured by the sword." Qingyan smiled and said, "As for how to choose, it's up to you."
Qin Bing also understood at this moment that although this method is not dangerous, it is a self-abuse way to completely find and beat it. God knows how many times it will take to open the stone door.
"Futam, I've come here, and I can't give up like this!" After a moment of hesitation, Qin Bing gritted his teeth and flashed a fierce look in his eyes. Before the ninth stone gate of the walkway again, he quickly ran the road, and Zhenyuan also ran with all his strength.
Looking at the stone door in front of him, he took a deep breath and slowly printed it on his palm.
In less than a breath, a terrible sword came and instantly repelled Qin Bing.
"Damn, I don't believe it!" After wiping the blood from the corners of his mouth, Qin Bing rushed to the front of the stone gate again. After a moment, there was a bang, and Qin Bing was repelled again.
"This boy is fierce. The world of cultivation is not good. He doesn't have the heart to fight. Even if he is talented, he is just mediocre after all!" In the ancient tower, he felt Qin Bing's attempts in the outside world, but Qingyan smiled and said nothing.
Before the ninth stone gate, a figure was repelled again and again and tried again. In this way, even Qin Bing himself did not remember how many times. I only remember that he persisted longer and longer in front of the stone gate, and the distance between being repelled was getting closer and closer.
"Hu~hu~" Qin Bing looked at the stone door in front of him, gasping for breath. After countless attempts, he was finally able to stand at the stone gate without being repelled, but still did not open the stone gate on the ninth floor.
"This time, we must succeed!" Taking a deep breath, a resolute color flashed in Qin Bing's recovered eyes, and his palm was imprinted on the stone door again.
"Open it for me!" When his palm touched the stone door, a strong sense of sword came in an instant, feeling the distance from his arm. Qin Bing shouted fiercely, and his palm was close to the stone door, motionless.
A harsh sound came from the stone door, and Qin Bing, who was trying his best to resist the impact of the sword, only felt a blank in his mind, and his arm became more and more weak.
"Are you going to fail?" Feeling the weak body, Qin Bing smiled bitterly in her heart.
"Boom!" At this moment, there was a sudden explosion in his mind, and the horrible sword spirit also disappeared in an instant, and in front of his palm, the stone door moved slowly.
"It worked!" Looking at the open stone gate, Qin Bing showed a long-lost smile.
"This boy really made him successful." Inside the ancient tower, Qingyan felt the changes in the outside world with a smile on his face.
Just as the ninth-floor stone gate was opened, the sleeping old man outside the first-floor stone gate suddenly opened his eyes, and a fine light flashed in his eyes and looked at the ninth-floor sword tower.
"This boy actually opened the sword tower on the ninth floor. This talent is really not weak!" All the changes in the sword tower could not escape the eyes of the old man. After learning that it was Qin Bing who opened the ninth floor, the old man couldn't help sighing.
"However, this opening of the ninth level is completely different from the skills in successful cultivation. I hope you can succeed!" Then the old man shook his head and immediately closed his eyes again, as if nothing had happened.
